Having stated the theoretical rights
of our citizens under the present
laws, we will show the way to apply
them in practice. Thus, if person,
tired of struggling for existence on
the worn and high priced lands of
the East, determines TO come West
and "grow up" with the country, the
first thing to do on arrival will be to
go to the land office aud get plats or
townships showing the quarter sec
tions taken, or still eligible for entry.
These will cost 81 each. With
these he eau proceed to the locality
they designate, and by the aid of the
figures on the section stakes, which
lie can easily learn TO read, can make

on the ground are very anxious TO
have neighbors, aud will often gra-
tvitously assist in 'locating" the in
tending home seeker The selection
made, the land office is again visited,
where the Register will supply Off
cial blanks, on which the immigrant
will fill out description of the town

Of his intention 10 settle on the same.
These are filed with the Register,
and the sun of SIS 90 is paid, If the

Bearing these facts in mind, there
is no necessity of requiring the sefvi-
ces of Gland agents" or "locators,"
and other expences than those nam
ed, are not necessary. The methods
of procedure, both in finding unen-

morning, and, as he had not been en-
abled the night before to pay the dumb
animals of the place q visit, he con.
cluded he would llo SO before breakfast.
The sun was up shining brightly, and
Clarence and viii were feeding the
horses and getting ready for the days
work. There were many familiar
creatures for him to see. Bally and
Bess had to be patted, caressed and
made to know that their former master
had come home Then he paid visit
to the goats and sheep in the pasture.
Some seemed TO recognize him, and ran
bleating toward the outstretched hand
that so oft had fed them. When he
came to gaze about on the beautiful

Rose, with merry laugh.
Mrs. Stuart smiled as she gazed into
the happy face Of her daughter. But
the attention of both were fixed upon
the road. The sun had now kindly
dipped behind the tree-tops, so there
was no need to shade their eyes
longer, though the light was yet brill
liant and glorious. There was no
sound after the wagon had crossed the
bridge, and mother and daughter knew
it was crossing the sandy strip at the
foot of the hill. Soon the light rattle
of wagon could be heard. There is
something in the chucking of wagon

that doctors were not fit persons TO
